Why do most big shot* NY lawyers seem like such useless tools? Is this learned through some sort of mentoring program? *in their own minds, of course. mainly the 6-12 year senior associate/junior partner types.

NY Biglaw attracts pushy people with big egos. There are tools everywhere though. I've had partners from small firms who think it's beneath them to negotiate with an associate, who try to BS me about what's market simply because they've got more years under their belt than I do, or who ramble endlessly because they like to hear themselves talk.
